The code you are looking for is just:

$ cat test.rc
<ruby>
run_single("version")
run_single("quit")
</ruby>

hdm@ubuntu:/msf3$ ./msfconsole  -r test.rc
<snip>
[*] resource (test.rc)> Ruby Code (41 bytes)
Framework: 3.4.0-dev.8977
Console  : 3.4.0-dev.8809
hdm@ubuntu:/msf3$


If you call interactive commands (interact, sessions -i, etc) from the
Ruby code, keep in mind the ruby will keep executing when it returns.
You can mix multiple ruby blocks with inline commands in RC scripts.

No, by design they shouldn't. Messing with the user's console from a
payload script can lead to bad behavior.
